Oozing with history and culture, Krakow is the perfect complement to time in Vienna and Budapest. Some highlights not to miss:
– Oskar Schindler’s Factory Museum tells the story of Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who saved the lives of over 1,000 Jews during the Holocaust.
– Wawel Cathedral, the Royal Castle, and the Dragon’s Den
– Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum is a somber but important place to visit. This former Nazi concentration and extermination camp is one of the most harrowing sites of the Holocaust.
– The Wieliczka Salt Mine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been in operation for over 700 years, and is home to an incredible network of underground chambers, tunnels, and chapels.
